Dan gave a beautiful speech just before Danny Don't You Know. He also absolutely cried when the crowd was chanting 'WE LOVE YOU' at the end of the show. It was an incredible time and an incredible crowd!

Approximately 2921 periods of ecstasy 👍

I have had this Spotify account since 2015 and have been lucky enough to see them twice in the UK, looking forward to the next decade of love ballads and songs about dicks 👍

Birmingham Starlight Brigade recording? 🥹✨️ plus Dan's beautiful cameo for my husband, Matt 💔

I thought I'd been to some pretty memorable gigs in my life; Rolling Stones on the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury, intimate FNM gig in the 90's, elaborate boyband arena performances with ridiculous budgets... and NSP in Birmingham was without a doubt the best gig that I have ever been to in my 46 years of life.

TWRP and NSP were just incredible and the crowd was made up of so many utterly splendid humans, but it was a particularly special night for me on a far deeper, meaningful, emotional, primal kind of level.

Sorry this post is about to get kind of heartwrenching, gang. You've been so kind already, feel free to skip to the end... I'll try to keep it as light as I can, dealing with trauma through humour is healthy, right?

I'd originally bought a ticket as a 24th wedding anniversary gift to my husband, Matt. If you’ve read my other posts you might already know that I planned to attend as his carer on a companion ticket, because of Matt's serious, progressive illness.

Then devastatingly, my beloved Matt died last month aged 47, following an entirely unexpected and very rapid decline.

Dan had recorded Matt this absolutely beautiful cameo, when we were losing hope that he would recover, shortly before he died (btw please don't tell anyone my real name, okay? It's a secret... 🤫)

After a bit of soul-searching I decided I would still go to the gig. I impulsively bought 2 VIP tickets so that an old friend and my (even older!) brother could accompany me. I knew it was going to be *very* emotional for me at times, and needed people who were close to both my husband and I near.

Wouldn't you know, Starlight Brigade was always Matt's song, before and throughout his illness.

It always helped to inspire and motivate him in ways that nothing else could, especially while he went through two years of brutal treatments, side effects and procedures. It soothed his soul.

Incidentally it's also one of my favourite songs to sing along to... Dan's lyrics and harmonies are so perfect and special and it’s just a particularly beautiful song in so many ways.

Belting out that song, with my entire chest, in the same room as Dan, while I wept and sobbed and had to be held up by my sweet friend as my knees gave way and I continued weep and sing and scream and shatter into a million pieces, genuinely felt like the single most raw, pure, therapeutic, cathartic, meaningful, magnificently powerful moment I’ve ever experienced.

I'm beyond sad that Matt couldn't be there to share that performance with me of course, and yet that experience couldn’t possibly have existed as it did if he *had* been there... grief is so weird and fucked up, you guys...

Anyway, the TL:DR is -

I'd love to know if any lovely (very naughty!) Birmingham folk happened to film any of Starlight Brigade, at all? Or Danny, Don't You Know? Or maybe have any photos or videos they would be happy to share with a 5'2" recent widow who couldn't see the stage despite spending £250 on tickets? 😅

It would mean the world to me on my grief journey if I could have/see a record of a few of those special moments. More than I can possibly express...

Big love to you in particular 💜

I just wanted a couple to say I was there.

Edit: yes I'm a terrible human being. I was told not to do something and I ignored it. In other shows where photos are allowed I literally take the smallest handful whilst I see other people filming half the concert, I just wanted a couple pics is all.

I didn't have to share these pics with y'all, I just wanted everyone to benefit from my crime. If all you're gonna say is I'm a bad guy just down vote me and be gone

To a couple from the Brixton concert who made my night

I was at the Brixton show, balcony row N.

There was a guy and a girl a row in front of me, a couple of seats to the left who made my night. I don't know who you were, but you sung and danced every line of every song like you had been waiting for the show all your lives and being in my 40s that was the energy that made me so happy for the future..whenever I think of the show (which was amazing) I also think of your energy and how it made me so happy to see people so happy to be at a show.

I don't know really what the point of the post is other than that I hope those two see it and know their happiness brightened someone else's day and to keep on keeping on.

TO BE UP FRONT AND CLEAR: Danny, Brian, everyone in TWRP, and Jazz Emu were all amazing, entertaining, exactly as I expected.

NSP were a true bucket list band for me, which makes it really sad that I ended up not enjoying most of my time. I think I must have been stood directly behind the one rude NSP fan, cos everyone else I met on the night was absolutely lovely.

Sadly, I'm a chronic pain haver, and Rock City is not a great venue for the disabled, they ran out of seating for those who requested it within minutes of doors, but I had my walking stick, so I figure I can stand behind the elevated step that the wheelchair and chair users were on pretty safely.

In comes a guy who forces his way into the tiny gap between me and the seats, and spends the entire gig dancing and headbanging like NSP had busted out ukuleles and steel drums to play a satanic jam to our dark lord.

Now, I'm all for a good mosh, I'd probably be in better health if I'd spent much less time in the pit as a youth, it was purely positioning that was an issue (though I guess if he'd been down on the ground he'd have had a similar issue due to the size of the crowd). He was pushing further back with every song, and there was no space to get out of his way, he was rude when it was pointed out to him, and he repeatedly kicked my stick out from under me (accidentally, I'm sure, but there's no way you don't notice you're doing this, at one point his whole ass was sat on the handle of my stick).

I ended up spending most of my energy and effort just to stay upright, until I realised I couldn't concentrate on the concert because of the combo of pain and trying not to get taken out. So I cut my losses, and went to the bar, if I couldn't see the band, at least I could still hear them.

I've decided not to cross NSP off my bucket list, as I wanna see them again, maybe with a lot more painkillers in my system and at a venue that can actually accomodate.

I'm sorry for the complain-y post, I just wanna give everyone a "yanno, have some gig etiquette, think about others and we can all have fun!" If there's an area that is clearly for people that aren't able-bodied, maybe it's not the place to dance like that?
